Chapter 1694

Chapter 1694“Thank you, mister,” Evangeline replied as she knelt before him. “In the meantime, you will have to
assume the identity of my friend so that no one else will know about this.”
The Gunderson family’s reputation will be ruined if word gets out about Evangeline being possessed by
another soul! After all, such incidents are especially frowned upon by spiritual energy cultivators!
Evangeline nodded. “All right, I understand. Come on, let’s get out of here!” “Not so fast. I came here to
look for the Century Eye Herb, so I need to find it before I leave,” Jared said.
“The Century Eye Herb?” Evangeline frowned slightly as she tried to recall what it was. After giving it
some thought, she asked, “Is it the one that only has three leaves? The leaves have a pattern that
looks like eyes, right?”
“Yes, that’s the one! Do you know where I can find it?” Jared asked excitedly. “I’m sorry. That stuff has
been growing on my coffin, so I absorbed it all…” Evangeline replied with an awkward expression.
By absorbing the energy from the Century Eye Herb, the holy maiden’s soul was able to sustain itself
till this day.
Jared was a little disappointed when he heard that, but he knew there wasn’t much he could do in this
situation. As such, he had no choice but to head back up the volcano with Evangeline.
As Evangeline had swallowed the Fire Immunity Pearl, Jared no longer felt the intense heat from the
molten lava when he was near her.
While they were taking their time swimming back up, Flaxseed was on the verge of breaking down from
anxiety.
Both Jared and Evangeline have been down there for such a long time now! It’s obvious that something
bad must’ve happened to them!“Oh, Jared… Who would’ve thought this is how you’d go out… Well, at least you died with a beautiful
woman by your side, so you won’t be too lonely in the afterlife!” Flaxseed did not expect Jared to end
up dying here.
He turned around and was about to leave when Jared’s voice rang out from behind him. “Hey, Mr.
Flaxseed! You can’t just leave on your own after bringing me all the way here! That’s not very nice!”
Flaxseed spun around in shock when he heard that, only to let out a snicker when he saw how funny
Jared looked in his underwear. “Jared! You’re alive! I thought you were dead!”
Flaxseed threw himself at Jared and hugged him tightly. Jared’s face turned red as he coughed loudly.
“M-Mr. Flaxseed, you’ll crush me to death if you don’t let go…
With an apologetic look on his face, Flaxseed quickly let go of him and asked, “Well? Did you manage
to get the Century Eye Herb?”
Jared nodded. “Yes, I did. And Evangeline has returned to normal as well.”
He was lying in Flaxseed’s face like it was the most natural thing in the world. Flaxseed glanced at
Evangeline and was surprised to see that her eyes no longer looked lifeless.
novelbin“Wow, she really has returned to normal! Not only did she regain her spiritual energy, but she also
looks a lot prettier than before! You sure are a lucky guy when it comes to women, Jared!”
Jared shot him a glare in response. “Ahem…. What are you saying, Mr. Flaxseed?”
Flaxseed let out a mischievous chuckle before holding his hand out toward Evangeline. “Hey, there!
Since you’re back to normal, let’s get reacquainted! You can call me Mr. Flaxseed!”Evangeline flashed him a smile as she shook his hand. “My name is Evangeline. It’s a pleasure to
make your acquaintance, Mr. Flaxseed-”
The look on Flaxseed’s face changed abruptly. The next thing they knew, a few of his charms flew into
the air and surrounded Evangeline.
